Add documentation to build custom unraid kernel

Hey, it would be great if you could add documentation on how you are building the custom kernel for unraid with all your tweaks, etc

^Not exactly a full write up but it's the one I use to get the Unraid Kernel to support Arc GPUs until they hit 6.2 in the mainline

Might be helpful as a starting point or just for anyone else looking to build it

on unraid 6.12.6 with this guide

I'm missing some libraries to finish the compilation.

make oldconfig make: error while loading shared libraries: libffi.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

do you use a vm or docker to compile a kernel this way?

Maybe @thor2002ro could provide some documentation?

I don't know what documentation you're looking for.... that link explains it all..... you seem to lack basic libs.... install libffi7 .... it literally says it...

The link above describes how to build a custom kernel for unraid, but not how to integrate your specific tweaks. Thats what i was asking in my initial question.

What? All the code is right there.... If you don't understand programming how do you expect to tweak it? I don't I don't understand the question....😅
